    American Wildfires

    It's solar. I try to calculate my impact on the planet in terms of carbon, I've installed a solar panel grid-tied system that offsets most of my usage. I'm also taking out concrete and putting in soil and trees. The house is mainly mud blocks which are very good insulation, and all the glass is...

    Does Anyone Still Smoke Spliffs?

    Smoking tobacco and hash was the standard in the UK because quite simply, there was no grass available. We had Lebanese Gold, Moroccan Green, Paki Black, and (ultra rare) opiated Nepalese Temple Balls. It's a crap method though because of the damage tobacco does to you.

    really slow seedling?

    In my view, 90% of this type of problem with seedlings is the medium. That's why I make up my own soil. And the soil I grow seeds in is different from the main grow: it's mainly peat and Perlite. You want rapid root growth. The worst thing for seedlings is a heavy, soggy medium with any kind of...

    Here's a trip back to 1970 for those of us old enough to remember. This music isn't for everyone. But maybe it should be, as 52 years later we wait for the Federal trial of Derek Chauvin. *** New York, New York (The big apple) A prerequisite to America A disguised sin Where some brother from...

    OK. Pop

    The Dead? I never liked their albums. But when I went to the new year's concert at Berkeley Uni in 1980, I was seriously impressed, I had a fabulous time. Maybe the nitrous oxide helped! The auditorium was crammed with balloons that kept bursting. And the following night I got invited to the...

    Leaf Problems

    It doesn't look like classic nute burn to me.

    Hi from Mexico

    I wonder if Texas will ever legalise. I doubt it. There will have to be a change in Federal law before that happens.

    Hi from Mexico

    I make my own soil up from black nursery soil, Perlite, moss peat, worm castings, wood ash and rotted sheep poo. It can be a bit smelly...

    Happy thread :)

    I had an RD200. The previous owner had left the road on it and got killed. The damn thing was lethal, it had 23HP and was light as a feather. It would pull 14,000 RPM! After spending 6 months making it beautiful, spraying it in black Metalflake and redoing all logos in actual gold leaf, I wrote...

    American Wildfires

    I'm going to move in another three years, probably. We moved to the countryside a year ago and our home is almost zero-carbon, but the summer temperatures are too much. This year has not been too bad, about 37C max, but sometimes we get to 44C and that's something I can't tolerate at my age.

    I don't live in the city anymore though. My place is like Country Cowfreak's if you recall the Furry Freak Bros!

    Piss poor roots in coco

    Felt vs plastic. Both plants were seeded at the same time and were roughly the same, in preflower, when I up-potted from #6 pots. The one on the right continued into flower, most of the fan leaves are gone, it's not that far from finishing. The one on the left went into a massive burst of veg...

    Piss poor roots in coco

    Too long ago. Right now I am changing to felt pots, the difference is impressive. You can have a comparison of that if you like.

    Mexico - Morelos farmers.

    Well... at the prices here, if it becomes (say) legal to export weed from Mexico to CA... the US growers will in no way be able to compete. Why? Price. My main crop is still several weeks away so I bought some. Since I have a good contact it came at the wholesale per-kilo price. It's almost...

    Piss poor roots in coco

    I used to run coco (none of your fancy expensive mixtures, just normal coco fibre) and first, I didn't 'pack it down', Just flood and drain, flood and drain. Finally, I did a clone experiment between coco and soil and the result was that the soil gave me a 30% higher yield, so I grow in (my mix...
